Applications
Motion control
- Robotics
- CNC
- Pick'n'place
- Precise speed,torque or position control
- Actuators
Other uses
VSD-E series has been successfully used also in non-motion related applications mainly in torque mode (a.k.a. current control mode). In these applications a LC filter has been used after drive to smoothen out the PWM output.
- High power LED driver (up to 160 VDC led strings) with dimming
- High power Thermoelectric cooling driver
DualDC
A special feature of VSD-E/XE is that it can control two indepdendent brush DC servo motors on single drive. This mode is achieved by downloading a freerly available DualDC firmware to the drive. DualDC mode has several restrictions compared to single axis mode due to hardware limitations.
